What you did I’ll never do
Verse
No one is ever truly alone.
Though sometimes it feels that way
Reach out take a hand, tell someone.
I think we all want to be saved.
Pre chorus
A stone thrown in a pond
Sends ripples beyond.
Even when you’re long gone.
Chorus
Some feel betrayed by the choice you made.
You only thought about you.
In a way you may have just saved me.
What you did I’ll never do.
Verse
I’m angry with you for dying
And I’m not the only one.
You cut short a life full of promise
With one shot from a hand gun.
Pre chorus
A stone thrown in a pond
Sends ripples beyond.
Even when you’re long gone.
Chorus
Some feel betrayed by the choice you made.
You only thought about you.
In a way you may have just saved me.
What you did I’ll never do.
Verse
If you could look down from heaven.
You would see eyes full of tears.
They are for you, they are for you.
We’re all wishing you were here.
Bridge
Your parents would still be angry
But you’d know they love you.
I’d cuss you out then I’d hold you
Cause that’s what good friend do.
Pre chorus
A stone thrown in a pond
Sends ripples beyond.
Even when you’re long gone.
Chorus
Some feel betrayed by the choice you made.
You only thought about you.
In a way you may have just saved me.
What you did I’ll never do.Last edited on Wed May 11th, 2022 10:39 pm by RainyDayMan

Some nice lyrics here. I was especially taken by the pre chorus. I think maybe the bridge:
"Cause that’s what good friend do" should be "friends do" plural but only a small niggle. Sorry to hear about your grandson's friend. How tragic

Hi. Sorry for your loss...
I will just throw out one thing. The 2nd and 3rd verses are ABCB but the first verse is ABCD. Find a way to rhyme the 2nd and 4th lines in the first verse.
